The late Mike Allen, D-10180, took this photograph over the Florida Keys during Memorial Day weekend 1991.  Regretfully, PARACHUTIST has not been able to use it until now; Allen did earlier this year in an automobile accident in his home state of Florida.  His excellent photography has appeared several times within the pages of PARACHUTIST.
